Restaurants in Jacksonville

  1. A

    Aix

    Bankers and Beautiful People dine on fashionably fusiony Mediterranean dishes at Aix, whose location – inside a nearly unmarked brick building in an ungentrified area of San Marco – adds to its charm. The menu bursts with global flavors – start with, say, Moroccan lamb meatballs, move on to white-truffle pizza, then finish with locally raised duck with mushroom bread pudding. Reservations recommended; service can be slow.

  13. Casbah

    Upon spying the swords, camels and Moorish lanterns lining the walls, you'll wonder if a passport is required for entry. Featuring authentic Middle Eastern dishes, beer, music and belly dancing, the cafe doubles as a hookah lounge with dozens of flavorful tobacco concoctions. A favorite for young hipster types. Casbah is in the Avondale neighborhood, just southwest of the main downtown area.

  14. bb's

    With its molded-concrete bar, clean, modern lines and daily cheese selection, this Euro-staurant may initially feel hipper-than-thou. But pull up a seat, chat with the staff and discover they're just like you – only dressed entirely in black. The chocolate ganache cake alone is worth the trip.

    Matthew's

    The stunning bronze-inlaid terrazzo floor of this 1920s bank cues the glam decor of this very fine restaurant, which would be comfortably at home in London, Paris or New York. The showy open kitchen is a fine stage for Matthew Medure and his team to meld exquisite Southern, Mediterranean, Asian and Middle Eastern flavors. Game is a specialty.

    Clark's Fish Camp

    Sample Florida's Southern 'Cracker' cuisine of gator, snake, catfish and frog's legs while surrounded by the surreal animal menagerie of 'America's largest private taxidermy collection.' This swamp shack is unforgettable. It's far south of downtown Jacksonville.
